Hi guys, I've got an older system I'm looking to upgrade and wasn't sure how much I can salvage from the current system.
I'm looking to buy a i7 5820K which I'm sure would appreciate some decent cooling.
My current CPU and cooler is a Intel E8400 3.0Ghz dual core coupled with a Xigmatek HDT-S1283 and I was hoping to salvage this cooler. If not, should I then look for something like the Noctua NH-D14?

All help is greatly appreciated.
